Thanks all for letting me bumble through my talk. I really enjoyed the discussions.

I fixed the error in the speed chart and it's live here:

I was scratching my head for a bit trying to figure out why this
wasn't running in Opera (10.60+), and it appears that they yanked
context.createImageData() at some point. It's not clear to me why
thats unsupported, but to getImageData() will also return an ImageData
object.

So if you change line 16 of the (generated) source from:
image = context.createImageData(N, N);
to
image = context.getImageData(0, 0, N, N);

It'll run in Opera. :D

A fancier solution that I found on the web:

if (window.CanvasRenderingContext2D && !
CanvasRenderingContext2D.prototype.createImageData &&
window.ImageData) {
CanvasRenderingContext2D.prototype.createImageData =
function(w,h) {return new ImageData(w,h) };
}

Awesome work, btw.
